The focus of the Development Centres is on quality training. Each session has been designed based upon the latest recommendations and thinking of England Hockey Board. The session is run by a Head Coach for the evening, supported by a team of Assistant Coaches. Players train in their own age group.

During the summer sessions, the emphasis will be on developing core skills. All players will then be invited to attend a competition phase where the four centres in Oxfordshire get together for match play. From these two phases players may then be invited to attend the JAC Selection events from which a squad will be selected to train and develop team player skills and to take part in County matches. Players from the JAC may be selected to attend Junior Regional Performance Centres (JRPC) run by England Hockey to progress along the player pathway.JAC Fixtures (2018)
